From Down Beat 37-15 (July 23, 1970 in a review by Dan Morgenstern:
"Murtaugh, once a very capable jazz ten­or saxophonist (older readers may recall a Bethlehem LP, Bobby Scott and Two Horns, on which he was prominently featured), has for some time been a success­ful composer of TV music of all sorts, from jingles to documentary scores. His work in these areas has been first-rate, though by its very nature transitory and often uncredited."
